Graco Nautilus 3 in 1 child Car Seat Review

The Graco Nautilus 3 in 1 child car seat is a quality seat at a very decent price.The Graco has many features that are pretty standard across the child car seat market now, but it does have some interesting extras as well as good  safety ratings.It comes with plenty of padding and seems to quite comfortable.It also has a head support which is adjustable.

Features for the Graco Nautilus 3 in 1

    • 5 point harness
    • Complies with all US safety standards
    • Has a frame that is reinforced steel
    • Converts to backless booster when your child hits 40 pounds
    • Cup holder and storage bins
While I was checking out the instructions, I did find something a little confusing that I have not seen on any other Graco Nautilus 3 in 1 reviews.The instructions were asking me to hook certain items up, but as far as I could see they were already hooked up, and this was not because they had already been hooked up in my review model.

Another possbile negative point is the ability to wash the cover.Although the instructions say that the seat liner can be removed and easily washed, the seat cover can only be used with the lowest harness level setting, because once you get past that point, it is supposed to be removed.Maybe the idea is that children who are that tiny bit older are less likely to make a terrible mess such as being sick, and more likely just to have a seat full of crumbs or something.I’m not sure if that design feature was actually calculated by a parent or not.

Personally, I would say not.Having said that, even though you can’t machine wash it, there are plenty of ways to give it a good clean up when the time comes.Although I would prefer a removable cover, it wouldn’t be a big enough negative for me to not buy the Graco Nautilus 3 in 1.


It also comes with a cup holder.Unlike a few other child car seats, the cup holder on the Graco Nautilus 3 in 1 does seem to be quite well put together, and I wouldn’t be surpised to see it last for quite a while.It’s probably unrealistic to think it will last until you no longer need the seat, but it’s still a useful extra.The Graco 3 in 1also has storage under both armrests.The great thing I like about this idea, is it can give your child a chance to look after their own toys or snacks or sweets, and it might stop them wanting to try and get out of the seat quite so much.

When the time is right and your children have outgrown the seat, it will convert in to a backless booster.Not the only seat that can do this I know, but a nice addition as it means you can certainly expect to get decent value from your purchase.

It does have a recline feature.The problem with this is that as most child car seats tend to sit flush with the back support of the actual car seat, there isn’t anywhere really for it to recline to, unless you have it positioned on a seat with a recline feature itself.Having checked out this seat myself, I can say that for the money, the Graco Nautilus 3 in 1 is an excellent buy.
